God, and the Word was GOD
Chapter 6
- After these things Jesus went over the Sea
of Galilee, which is the Sea of Tiberias.
(John 21:1)
- Then a great multitude followed Him,
because they saw His signs which He performed on those who were
diseased.
- And Jesus went up on a mountain, and
there He sat with His disciples.
- Now the Passover, a
feast of the Jews, was near. (Deut. 16:1)
- Then Jesus lifted up
His eyes, and seeing a great multitude coming toward Him, He said to
Philip, "Where shall we buy bread, that these may eat?" (John 1:18)
- But this He said to
test him, for He Himself knew what He would do.
- Philip answered Him, "Two hundred denarii
worth of bread is not sufficient for them, that every one of them may
have a little." (Num.
11:21&22)
- One of His disciples, Andrew, Simon
Peter's brother, said to Him. (John 1:40)
- "There is a lad here who has five barley
loaves and two small fish, but what are they among so many?" (2 Kin. 4:43)
- Then Jesus said, "Make the people sit
down." Now there was much grass in the place. So the men
sat down, in number about five thousand.
- And Jesus took the
loaves, and when He had given thanks He distributed them to the
disciples, and the disciples to those sitting down; and likewise
of the fish, as much as they wanted.
- So when they were filled, He said to His
disciples, "Gather up the fragments that remain, so that nothing is
lost."
- Therefore they gathered them up, and
filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley loaves
which were left over by those who had eaten. (2 Kin. 4:44)
- Then those men, when they had seen the
sign that Jesus did, said,
"This is truly the Prophet who is to come into the world." (Matt. 11:3; John 9:17)
- Therefore when Jesus perceived that they
were about to come and take Him by force to
make Him king, He departed again to a mountain by Himself alone.
(John 18:36)
- And when evening came, His disciples
went down to the sea,
- got into the boat,
and went over the sea toward Capernaum. And it was now dark,
and Jesus had not come to them.
- Then the sea arose
because a great wind was blowing.
- So when they had rowed about three or
four miles, they saw Jesus walking on the sea and drawing near the
boat; and they were afraid. (Matt.
17:6)
- But He said to them, "It is I; do not be
afraid." (Is. 43:1&2)
- Then they willingly received Him into
the boat, and immediately the boat was at the land
where they were going.
- On the following day, when the people
who were standing on the other side of the sea saw that there was no
other boat there, except that one which His disciples had entered, and
that Jesus had not entered the boat with His disciples, but His
disciples had gone away alone -
- However, other boats came from Tiberias,
near the place where they ate bread after the Lord had given thanks
-
- when the people therefore saw that Jesus
was not there, nor His disciples, they also got into boats and came to
Capernaum, seeking Jesus. (Luke
4:42)
- And when they found Him on the other
side of the sea, they said to Him, "Rabbi, when did You come here?"
- Jesus answered them and said, "Most
assuredly, I say to you, you seek Me, not because you saw the signs,
but because you ate of the loaves and were filled. (John
6:36)
- "Do not labour for
the food which perishes, but for the food which endures to everlasting
life, which the Son of Man will give you, because God the Father has
set His seal on Him." (John 6:40; John 6:54; Acts
2:22)
- Then they said to Him, "What shall we
do, that we may work the works of God?"
- Jesus answered and
said to them, "This is the work of God, that you believe in Him whom
He sent." (1 John 3:23)
- Therefore they said to Him, "What sign
will You perform then, that we may see it and believe You? What
work will you do? (Matt.
12:38; Matt. 16:1)
- "Our fathers ate the manna in the
desert; as it is written, 'He gave them bread from heaven to eat.'"
(Ex. 16:4; Ex. 16:15; Neh. 9:15; Ps. 78:24)
- Then Jesus said to
them, "Most assuredly, I say
to you, Moses did not give you the bread from heaven, but
My Father gives you the true bread from heaven. (John 3:13-16)
- "For the bread of God
is He who comes down from heaven and gives life to the world." (John 3:31)
- Then they said to
Him, “Lord, give us this bread always.” (John 4:15)
- And
Jesus said to them, “I am the bread of life.
He who comes to Me shall never hunger,
and he who believes in Me shall never thirst.
(John 4:14; John
7:37; Is. 55:1&2)

and yet do not believe. (John 6:26; __6:64; John 10:26;

that the Father gives Me will come to Me,
and the one who comes to Me I will by no means cast out.

I have come down from heaven, not to do My own will,
but the will of Him who sent Me. (Ps. 40:8; Luke 22:42; John 5:19; John
10:18)
- "This
is the will of the Father who sent Me,
that of all He has given Me I should lose nothing,
but should raise it up at the last day. (John 10:28; John
17:12; John 18:9)
- "And
this is the will of Him who sent Me,
that everyone who sees the Son and believes in Him may have everlasting
life; and I will raise him up at the last day."
(John 3:15&16; John 4:14; _6:27,
_6:47, _6:54)
- The Jews then murmured against Him,
because He said, "I am the bread which came down from heaven."
- And they said, "Is
not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know?
How is it then that He says, 'I have come down from heaven'?"
(Luke 4:22)
- Jesus therefore answered and said to
them, "Do not murmur among yourselves.
- "No one
can come to Me
unless the Father who sent Me draws him;
and I will raise him up at the last day. (Song 1:4; Phil. 1:29)
- "It is
written in the prophets,
'And they shall all be taught by God.'
Therefore everyone who has heard and
learned from the Father comes to Me. (Is. 54:13)

that anyone has seen the father,
except He who is from God;
He has seen the Father. (John 1:18;

- "Most
assuredly, I say to you,
he who believes in Me has everlasting life. (John 3:16-18; John
6:40; Acts 16:31)
- "I
am the bread of life.
- "Your fathers ate the manna in the
wilderness, and are dead.
- "This is the bread
which comes down from heaven, that one may eat of it and not die.
- "I am the living bread which came down
from heaven. If any one eats of this bread, he
will live forever; and the bread that I shall give is My flesh, which
I shall give for the life of the world." (John
3:13; Heb. 10:5)
- The Jews therefore
quarrelled among themselves,
saying, "How can this Man give us His flesh to eat?" (John 3:9; _7:43;
_9:16; _10:19)
- Then Jesus said to
them, "Most assuredly, I
say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and
drink His blood, you have no life in you. (Matt. 26:26)
- "Whoever eats My flesh and drinks My
blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day. (John 4:14; John 6:27;
John 6:40)
- "For My flesh is food indeed, and My
blood is drink indeed.

blood abides in Me, and I in him. (1

live because of the Father, so he who feeds on Me will live because of
Me.

which came down from heaven -- not as your fathers ate the manna, and
are
dead. He who eats this bread will live forever." (Ex. 16:14-35)

He taught in Capernaum. (John 18:20)
- Therefore many of His disciples, when
they heard
this, said,
"This is a hard saying; who can understand it?" (John 3:9; _6:66)
- When Jesus knew in
Himself that His disciples murmured about this, He said to them, "Does
this
offend you?

see the Son of Man ascend where He was before? (Acts 1:9; Acts 2:32&33)

flesh profits nothing.
The words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are
life. (Luke 4:32; Acts 5:20)

of you who do not believe." For Jesus knew from the
beginning
who they were who did not believe, and who would betray Him. (John 6:36; John 13:11)
- And He said,
"Therefore I have said to you that no one can come to Me
unless it has been granted to him by My Father."

went back and
walked with Him no more. (John 6:60)

the twelve, "Do you also want to go away?" (Matt. 16:15)
